What Is Considered a Personal Injury in Maryland?

In Maryland, a personal injury occurs when someone is harmed due to the negligence or wrongful actions of another party. Personal injury cases can encompass a wide range of accidents and incidents, including:

• Car Accidents: Collisions on the road caused by reckless or negligent driving.
• Slip and Fall Accidents: Injuries sustained on someone else's property due to hazardous conditions.
• Medical Malpractice: Negligent actions by healthcare professionals that result in patient harm.
• Product Liability: Injuries caused by defective or dangerous products.
• Dog Bites: Injuries caused by someone else's pet.

If you've been injured in any of these situations or any other incident where another party's negligence played a role, you may have a valid personal injury claim.
